Xiaomi recently launched the amazing Redmi Note 10 series in the global market and it includes several devices with an incredibly high value for money. If you are looking for the most interesting device with a price tag of around €200, you can not avoid considering these phones. But given the high number of variants belonging to this series, you might make a lot of confusion when it comes to their specifications. After we published a comparison between Redmi Note 10, Redmi Note 10 Pro, and Redmi Note 10 Pro Max, we decided to compare the remaining variants: here is the specs comparison between Redmi Note 10, Redmi Note 10S, and Redmi Note 10 5G.

ADDITIONAL FEATURES Dual SIM slot, splash resistant (IP53) Dual SIM slot, splash resistant (IP53) Dual SIM slot, 5G

Design

Redmi Note 10, Redmi Note 10S, and Redmi Note 10 5G have the same design with a rectangle-shaped camera module, a punch-hole display, and a side-mounted fingerprint reader. They are all made of polycarbonate; the Redmi Note 10 and the Note 10S have the IP53 certification which makes them splash resistant and dust resistant (but not in every market). The Redmi Note 10 5G has a slightly wider display with a diagonal of 6.5 inches.

 

Display

Redmi Note 10 and Note 10S come with the same display which is actually better than the panel found on the 5G variant. We are talking about an AMOLED panel with a peak brightness up to 1100 nits, a diagonal of 6.43 inches, and a Full HD+ resolution. The Redmi Note 10 5G offers a higher 90 Hz refresh rate, but it has an IPS panel with less impressive colors. Despite those AMOLED displays, as mentioned above, all the phones have a side-mounted fingerprint scanner, but it is pretty fast and accurate.

 

Hardware/Software

The most complete hardware setup belongs to the Redmi Note 10 5G. The Mediatek Helio G95 found on the Redmi Note 10S provides a similar level of performance to the MediaTek Dimensity 700, but the latter supports 5G, while the Helio does not. Further, the Mediatek Dimensity 700 is built with a better 7 nm production process minimizing the energy consumption, while the Helio G95 is built at 12 nm. The Snapdragon 678 found on the vanilla Redmi Note 10 is even weaker than Helio G95, but it is built with a better 11 nm production process.

 

Camera

The most advanced cameras belong to the Redmi Note 10S. It has a better 64 MP main sensor, an 8 MP ultrawide camera, and a pair of 2 MP sensors for macros and depth calculation. The vanilla Redmi Note 10 has the same setup with the exception of the main camera, which is a 48 MP sensor.

 

Battery

These three handsets come with the same battery capacity: 5000 mAh. But the Redmi Note 10 should offer a longer battery life because of its components. The Redmi Note 10 5G should have a higher energy consumption due to its IPS display, despite its processor is built with a better production process. Redmi Note 10 5G also comes with a slower fast charging tech: you can get a power of 33W with Redmi Note 10 and 10S, while the 5G variant has just 18W.

 

Xiaomi Redmi Note 10 vs Xiaomi Redmi Note 10S vs Xiaomi Redmi Note 10 5G: Price

Redmi Note 10 is actually priced at less than €200/$243 globally, Redmi Note 10S costs €249/$304, and Redmi Note 10 5G costs €229/$279 in its base variant. We think the Redmi Note 10S is the most balanced device with its great camera, AMOLED display, and powerful chipset. But with the Redmi Note 10 5G you can get 5G and a better chipset, so do not underestimate it. You should opt for the Redmi Note 10 only if you need to save money as much as possible.

Moto G20 will launch as Lenovo K13 Note in some markets

Lenovo has never been a big player in the smartphone category. But the company used to sell some good budget smartphones that competed with Xiaomi’s Redmi lineup. Right now, the world’s largest PC maker’s only in-house developed phones are the Lenovo Legion Phone Duel series. Whereas, the other affordable handsets are merely rebranded Motorola phones. According to a new leak, the firm will be soon releasing another such rebadged device.

Lenovo K13 Note Render Leak 01

Popular leakster Sudhanshu Ambhore has teamed up with 91Mobiles to bring us information about the upcoming Lenovo K13 Note. As per him, this handset will be nothing but a rebadged Motorola Moto G20. 

Hence, it will have exact same set of specifications and design. He has even shared renders of this phone in two colors (Pink, Blue).

The only differences between the Lenovo K13 Note and the Moto G20 will be the branding on the back panel and no 128GB variant for the former. The K13 Note will include a vertically placed ‘Lenovo’ logo at the bottom left corner and will lack the iconic ‘Motorola Batwing’ on the rear-mounted fingerprint sensor. Additionally, it’s not sure whether the Note will feature NFC, which is market-dependent on the Moto.

Lenovo K13 Note Render Leak 02

That said, the other features are said to be common on both. Therefore, the Lenovo K13 Note will come with a 6.5-inch HD+ (1600 x 720 pixels) LCD panel with a 90Hz refresh rate and a dewdrop notch, UNISOC T700 SoC, 4GB RAM, 64GB internal storage, 48MP (wide) + 8MP (ultra-wide) + 2MP (macro) + 2MP (depth) quad-camera setup, and a 13MP selfie camera.

The remaining specs of this device will include a MicroSD card slot, 3.5mm headphone jack, USB Type-C port, IP53 rating, dedicated Google Assistant key, dual-SIM, 4G, dual-band WiFi, Bluetooth 5.0, GNSS, accelerometer, ambient light sensor, gyroscope, proximity sensor, Android 11, 5,000mAh battery, and 10W charging.

Unfortunately, the tipster doesn’t have info on when and in which markets the Lenovo K13 Note will be launched.

TENAA says vivo Y76s will be a 5G smartphone

Recently, a vivo smartphone called vivo Y76s was spotted on the 3C certification bureau, IMEI database, and CEIR database. One of these listings revealed the phone’s 18W charging support. Whereas, another said the handset to be limited to 4G. But now, this device’s TENAA certification confirms it to be a 5G smartphone.

Vivo Logo

According to TENAA, the upcoming vivo Y76s with model number V2111A will be a 5G handset. Hence, it should launch as ‘vivo Y76s 5G’.

As per the listing, the phone will feature a 6.58-inch display and a 4,910mAh battery (rated capacity). The device will come with dual-SIM and Android 11. However, it’s not known whether it will run Funtouch OS 11 or OriginOS.

Lastly, the listing says that the handset will measure 163.95 x 75.30 x 8.50mm in dimensions.

Usually, TENAA listings include the entire specs as well as images of smartphones. But at times, they get added gradually. Hence, the listing of vivo Y76s 5G does not have much information at the moment.

Anyway, we expect to learn more about this phone before its official announcement sometime in the near future. But it is worth noting that some vivo budget smartphones get a silent release in China. Hence, there’s a chance that vivo Y76s 5G may launch in a similar manner.

According to popular leakster Digital Chat Station, two HONOR 5G smartphones have been certified by China’s 3C. As per the listings, these phones bear the model numbers NTH-AN00 and NRA-AN00 respectively.

Interestingly, the tipster does not call these devices the HONOR 50 series. But for some reason, other publications believe them to be HONOR 50 and HONOR 50 Pro respectively.

Anyway, the listings say that NTH-AN00 (possible HONOR 50) will ship with an HW-110600C00 66W charger. This is the same power adapter that comes bundled with the HONOR V40 series. In other words, the HONOR 50 will support 66W fast charging.

HONOR 50 Pro NTH-AN00 NRA-AN00 3C Certification

On the other hand, NRA-AN00 (possible HONOR 50 Pro) will come with an all-new HN-200500C00 100W charger. Hence, the HONOR 50 Pro could be the first smartphone from the brand to support 100W fast charging. 

As per another tipster, the 100W charging on the HONOR 50 Pro could be based on Qualcomm Quick Charge 5. However, there’s no concrete proof for this claim.

That said, according to previous reports, the HONOR 50 series will sport two circular modules for rear cameras. The vanilla HONOR 50 is expected to feature a MediaTek Dimensity 1200 SoC, whereas the HONOR 50 Pro is said to powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon SoC.

Last but not least, some alleged specs of mysterious HONOR 50 Pro+ have leaked too.
